The topic for this weeks #frifotos is fall. This means Autumn to us Brits. Autumn and the Fall is a beautiful time of year and many people travel in this season for the spectacular colours and wonderful crisp clear days.
Our photo for this weeks topic is from Borde Hill Gardens in Haywards Heath, close to our head office.

We are pleased to announce that Lostock Junction Limited has now purchased Barton Hill Travel.
We remain committed to offering unrivalled and personal service. As a completely independent company, established over 35 years ago, we can still offer all the special touches and extras that we promise you will not get anywhere else.
Operationally nothing will change and we hope to continue to build our relationship with you, our clients.
As we all know London and the UK is in the spotlight next year. This however should not put you off travelling. The Olympic sites are all very concentrated and outside of London and surrounds we wont be any busier than usual. Stories about inflated costs and pricing outside the capital are myth.
So if you are contemplating a tour in the future please get in contact with us. Also please don’t forget we have a vast experience of organising tours throughout Europe. We have run many successful trips based on many diverse subjects so please let us quote on your itineraries, plans or tours to see what we can offer.
We now have skiing photos up on facebook from a gap year students ski week which is all part of the unique experience we can offer gap year students in Australia wanting to come to the UK.
